-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Defense (DoD) is publishing this notice to 
announce that it is renewing the charter for the Board of Advisors to 
the Presidents of the Naval Postgraduate School and the Naval War 
College (``the Board'').

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jim Freeman, Advisory Committee 
Management Officer for the Department of Defense, 703-692-5952.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This committee's charter is being renewed in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5 
U.S.C., Appendix, as amended) and 41 CFR 102-3.50(d). The charter and 
contact information for the Designated Federal Officer (DFO) can be 
obtained at http://www.facadatabase.gov/. The Board provides 
independent advice on matters relating to the Naval Postgraduate School 
and the Naval War College. The Board shall be composed of no more than 
10 members who are eminent authorities in the fields of academia, 
business, national defense and security, the defense industry, and 
research and analysis. Members of the Board who are not full-time or 
permanent part-time Federal officers or employees will be appointed as 
experts or consultants pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3109 to serve as special 
government employee members. Members of the Board who are full-time or 
permanent part-time Federal officers or employees will be appointed 
pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.130(a) to serve as regular government employee 
members. Each Board member is appointed to provide advice on the basis 
of their best judgment without representing any particular point of 
view and in a manner that is free from conflict of interest. Except for 
reimbursement of official Board-related travel and per diem, Board 
members serve without compensation. The DoD, as necessary and 
consistent with the Board's mission and DoD policies and procedures, 
may establish subcommittees, task forces, or working groups to support 
the Board, and all subcommittees must operate under the provisions of 
FACA and the Government in the Sunshine Act. Subcommittees will not 
work independently of the Board and must report all recommendations and 
advice solely to the Board for full deliberation and discussion. 
Subcommittees, task forces, or working groups have no authority to make 
decisions and recommendations, verbally or in writing, on behalf of the 
Board. No subcommittee or any of its members can update or report, 
verbally or in writing, directly to the DoD or any Federal officers or 
employees. The Board's DFO, pursuant to DoD policy, must be a full-time 
or permanent part-time DoD employee, and must be in attendance for the 
duration of each and every Board/subcommittee meeting. The public or 
interested organizations may submit written statements to the Board 
membership about the Board's mission and functions. Such statements may 
be submitted at any time or in response to the stated agenda of planned 
Board meetings. All written statements must be submitted to the Board's 
DFO who will ensure the written statements are provided to the 
membership for their consideration.
